Tunisian Ribbed Scarf Pattern

I wanted to make K's dad a nice wool scarf last Christmas because his job involves plowing snow-piled roads during the winter. K was very particular about the pattern because his dad will never wear anything with the slightest bit of design. I bought the plainest brown yarn in the store and somehow convinced him that a ribbed scarf would still be ordinary enough not to provoke teasing from my father-in-law's coworkers.


After attempting to knit a few inches, I could tell that I had another painfully slow project on hand (see previous post). Instead, I turned my eyes to Tunisian crochet, which has some lovely knit- and purl-like alternatives. While the stitches unfortunately don't look the same on both sides, I still think K's dad will like it. If nothing else, it'll keep him nice and toasty.
